For the mayors with disabilities and 2 years ago we signed the americans with disabilities act and we had more than 500 people come and the theme was it doesnt stop here the reason is under the dream of the ada employment is really the portion that is unfulfilled. We really have not reached the numbers that i think the founders really expected when the ada was first signed and much of the public testimony back in 1988 and 1989 about the needs for this civil rights legislation focused on employment as an issue. People with disabilities is only 1 3 as likely to be employed from people without disabilities and their income is dramatically lower than a peer who doesnt have a disability.

So you need to address the root cause of the problem. Thank you. I say no to this legislation. Thank you so much my my name is george. I have been a renter in San Francisco for over 30 years. I have yet to have known an honest landlord. Thank you. If this passes, i recommend that you pass this resolution, because it will help to protect transpeople of color, and the greater transpopulation, because they are frequently the ones who are greatly egregiously targeted for these unlawful evictions. I have sustained i have been able to survive these chronic attempts at eviction over 30 years that i have been here with the help of eviction collaboratives and other agency
